> Then I wrote a couple papers related to that Law, which ended up being my most successful work so far. I have a serious hard time marking progress in the modern 'science' field. There are too many people afraid of Industry, so they get a PhD, and to graduate a PhD you need to prove you are correct. That means too often finding 'conclusions' in 'data' that you 'studied'. The incentive system in science is warping the scientific method to proving your idea by any means necessary. This is not an opinion, its been documented that many PhD studies could not be replicated. (psychology is particularly bad) In Industry, this isnt true. If it doesnt work, your customer knows. Industry is my indicator of progress. There is no lying about data or stretching conclusions. When you leave the math of chemistry, these conclusions become more and more opinionated.
